Who is liable after utilities are turned on for inspection?
Hi everyone, wanted to know what you guys thought. I am planning on purchasing a home in PA. Seller is selling it as is and will make no repairs. No sellers disclosure either. Seller will not turn on utilities for the inspection but signed in contract that they would. I would like to turn utilities for the day of inspection to assess all repairs/risks.
If I were to turn on utilities and if something went wrong (pipes burst, leaks, etc) who is liable?
Thanks for your help!
